The end of Dayton OH?
« on: June 04, 2008, 07:18:59 am »
Wicked WICKED weather here in Dayton Ohio last night and today!  Like 3 inches of rain last night and I think 3 inches in the last hour this morning. Funnel clouds are being spotted and tornado warning sirens going of regularly. Thunder and lightening everywhere. Channel 2 got hit by lightening and went off the air and there was a person hit last night. There's been golf ball size hail reported in spots. The Gods are pretty ticked off for sure!!!!!!  (Hope it wasn't something I did!)

How bout you JRCONNIE? Wilmington got alot of the furry.

Oh yeah the neighbors house burned pretty much to the ground Tuesday morning about 2:30am. The roof is gone so if anything wasn't burned up in the fire it is now completely soaked! They had a fire in the fireplace and it some how worked its way through the flu and into the attic, they went to bed and woke up to the smoke detectors beeping. They got out and are ok but the house is bulldozer material!  CHECK YOUR SMOKE DETECTOR BATTERIES!

Yep, had it again tonight, it's the same stuff from the west. It's like a single brush stroke. I was at a marching band prop construction meeting at the directors house in Springboro and all heck broke loose!!   It got real cool and all of a sudden a torrential  down poor 1 1/2+ inches  and high winds(trees bending over) then a 1/2 hr later nothing. The power flickered and went out for a while then came back on. The dog was freaking out like the dancing mice on Happy Days.

Oh well that's Ohio for you. It's official mother natures nuts!

Hope this isnt to dumb of a question but are you guys covered by insurance? Example if a twister destroys your house?
You guys sure are getting hit hard down there this year. Keep safe.

Thanks Hank, yeah I've got everything-Dwelling and Contents covered. If I can find my file cabinet after the big event I've got pictures and inventory lists of most of my tools and personal items. You all might want to make a list of all your stuff in case of theft or major disaster.

Sorry it took so long to respond, I've been super busy.
